The cage-type MIL-100(Fe) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were used as matrices for surface assisted laser desorption-ionization mass spectrometry. The unique 3D cage frameworks and the iron-center feature good reproducibility of MS intensity and a high signal-to-noise ratio compared to organic or other nanoparticle matrices.
